This article features Ken Robinson; a prominent public speaker. In it he discusses how children are being taught the answers and denied the freedom of asking questions.

Really great read!!! This article really digs deep into so many issues our educational system has today. I feel strongly about all of the authors assertions and hope soon we make some changes.

Great find, the article it very well written and the topic alone is something to really just think about, I agree that children are becoming much more shy when it comes to asking questions and instead of being told there is no stupid question they just go on not understanding because they didn't want to ask someone a question that they had concerns about.

The article studies the relationship between cyberbullying and school bullying. The results show that students who are bullied in cyberspace are at higher risk of being bullied at school as well. Additionally, students who are bullied in cyberspace or in both cyberspace and school are at high risk of low grades, poor concentration, and absenteeism. Bullying has a direct impact on learning whether it occurs in cyberspace or at school.

Bullying does effect a student's ability to learn, whether it is cyber or not. It can lesson their focus in school and in their social life. Cyber bullying is worse because it can come in many forms. The internet is everywhere and anyone can use it against someone.

I think it should be common sense that if someone is spending more time getting cyber bullied on top of getting in school bullied as well, If it was me I would not be doing my work. People just need to stop and think before they post.
